Paraoxonase (PON-1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-bound enzyme with activity toward multiple substrates. It hydrolyzes organic phosphate and aromatic carboxylic acid esters. It also inhibits accumulation of oxidized phospholipids in plasma lipoproteins by a mechanism yet to be determined. Therefore, we subjected apolipoprotein A-I proteoliposomes containing either 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine to oxidation by a peroxynitrite generator, SIN-1, in the presence and absence of purified PON-1. PON-1 modified the proportion of oxidation products without affecting the overall extent of PC oxidation. However, in the presence of PON-1, phosphatidylcholine isoprostanes were hydrolyzed to lysophosphatidylcholine. In addition, PON-1 hydrolyzed the phosphatidylcholine core aldehydes 1-palmitoyl-2-(9-oxo)nonanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and 1-palmitoyl-2-(5-oxo)valeroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine to lysophosphatidylcholine. This hydrolysis was not affected by pefabloc, a serine esterase inhibitor. There was no detectable release of linoleate, arachidonate, or their hydroperoxy or hydroxy derivatives in the presence of PON-1. We conclude that PON-1 minimizes the accumulation of phosphatidylcholine oxidation products by the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine isoprostanes and core aldehydes to lysophosphatidylcholine with a serine esterase-independent mechanism. 相似文献

Unsaturated triacylglycerols (TG) and choline (PC) and ethanolamine (PE) phosphatides of known structure were subjected to ozonization and reduction with triphenylphosphine to yield the corresponding lipid ester core aldehydes. Mono- and di-C9 aldehyde palmitoylglycerols were prepared from oleoyldipalmitoyl and oleoyllinoleoylpalmitoyl glycerols, respectively, while egg yolk PC and PE provided the mono-C5 and mono-C9 aldehydes of palmitoyl-and stearoyl glycerophospholipids. The aldehydes were isolated in the free form and as the dinitrophenylhydrazone (DNPH) derivatives by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). The intermediate ozonides, free aldehydes and hydrazones were identified by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with on-line negative ion thermospray and normal phase HPLC with on-line positive ion electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The synthetic aldehydes were used as carriers during isolation from natural sources and as reference compounds in quantitative analyses 相似文献

A new juno iris for the Flora of Lebanon and Syria, Iris wallisiae T. Hall & Seisums, is described and illustrated. Recent work on the systematics and phylogeny of Iris subgenus Scorpiris is reviewed. The relationship of I. wallisiae with related species, and particularly with I. persica L., is discussed. 相似文献

Summary A group of ompA mutants of Escherichia coli K12 are described which were sensitive to bacteriophage K3 in a background wild-type for lipopolysaccharide (LPS). With mutant LPS in vivo (lacking some core sugar residues), however, the ompA mutations gave resistance to K3. Outer membrane levels of OmpA protein were normal or near-normal when the mutations resided in either wild-type or mutant LPS backgrounds. Strains in which the mutations occurred in a wild-type LPS background adsorbed K3 phage at the same initial rate and to the same extent as a wild-type strain, but the efficiency of plaquing of the adsorbed K3 was reduced to 25–50% of wild-type levels. Under conditions where a wild-type strain irreversibly adsorbed over 90% of available phage K3 within 3 min, double mutants (ompA mutant, LPS mutant) left 90% of the phage viable after 1h. The 10% of inactivated phage did not form plaques. 相似文献

The application of MS-MS for the analysis of long-chain carboxylic acids and their esters has proved enormously successful but expensive. It is discussed mainly on basis of results obtained with different instruments with lesser attention to principles of the method, which have been adequately reviewed elsewhere. The use of electrospray ionization (ESI) has greatly increased the sensitivity of the method and has permitted assay of total lipid extracts. The combination of HPLC with electrospray and single quadrupole mass spectrometry, LC-ESI-CID-MS, rivals the triple quadrupole MS-MS application in many instances at considerably lower cost. However, LC-ESI-MS-MS remains the most desirable system at the present time for lipid ester analyses. 相似文献
